Before joining Compass, DiPaula was the Chief Operating Officer for Petrie Ross Ventures, the premier developer in the Mid-Atlantic region—with a national reputation for creating successful retail centers and exciting mixed-use properties. As COO, Mr. DiPaula managed day-to-day corporate operations, leasing, financing, property management, marketing, and company-wide strategies and systems. DiPaula currently serves on the boards of The Chesapeake Bay Environmental Center, The Annapolis and Anne Arundel County Conference and Visitors Bureau, and The Annapolis Community Foundation.

DiPaula brings to his responsibilities nearly two decades of hands-on budgeting and management experience. In 2000, he served as the Chief Executive Officer of the successful Republican National Convention in Philadelphia. The youngest person ever to run a national convention, DiPaula managed all aspects of a $100 million event that ultimately leveraged $270 million in investment for the region.
